[QUOTE="Jackburton, post: 3162414, member: 34538"] Yeah, that’s what I was explaining in another thread. Even getting off at 6, which around here is 8.5 hours, you miss everything anyways. Now that one in a freshman in college and the other is a sophomore in HS, it’s been much easier on the Mrs. She’s still earning her keep shuttling my daughter (while she was at home) and son to and from work during the weekdays. Son is 15 so he’s not old enough to drive, daughter saved her money to buy a car that we went in on 50/50, doing the same with the son. Both have checking accounts, with savings, that they move half their check into. Daughter saved enough even after $2500(half the car) so she can draw $250 a month while in college so she doesn’t have to worry about money while away. She’s coming home for 4 weeks during the winter break to work 30-40 hours to save for a upgrade in dorm as we are only paying for the base dorm and unlimited meal plan( plus tuition ). She’ll be working all summer and taking online summer classes to graduate in three years. Plan is to go to graduate law school, which she’ll be entirely on the hook for. Nice thing is we are only 41, most of our peers have toddlers or even younger around here. When they ask us about more kids we’re like “nope, been there, done that”. [/QUOTE]
